Understatement of the year:

"He wasn't very bright".

I think this person will be up for a Darwin Award or at least an honorable mention in a few years.

At least with the Dumbest Criminal of the Year award, he'll be alive to receive it. But then I see that as Darwins-In-Training.

I have to ask what the hell was that dumbass on to walk into a room full of police officers and attempt a robbery. He seriously needs to track down that neighborhood dealer and get his money back.

HA! Reminds me of a guy who tried holding up a Big Boy's...that was sponsering a cop breakfast...what did he not see the eight or so cars outside?

How about the guy who walked past a parked patrol car into a gun shop where armed customers and armed employees were, as well as the cops from the aforementioned car, walked all the way to the counter at the far end of the store past said customers and cops (in uniform), and tried to rob the store at gunpoint?

Kogarashi - forget cops. Forget whether there are customers there. Trying to rob a gun store, regardless of what else is in it, has to rank right up there in the "stupid" category!

Now that's Darwin Award waiting in the wings.

Gotta say it yet again...........


People do dumb things. And I'm not talking about paying too much for car insurance either.
